Isaiah 53
1 Who would have had faith in the word which has come to our ears, and to whom had the arm of the Lord been unveiled?
| چه کسی پیام ما را باور کرده، و بازوی توانای خداوند بر چه کسی آشکار شده است! |
2 For his growth was like that of a delicate plant before him, and like a root out of a dry place: he had no grace of form, to give us pleasure;
| در نظر خدا او مانند درخت سبزی بود که در زمین خشک و شوره‌زار روییده و ریشه دوانده باشد؛ اما در نظر ما او زیبایی و جلوه‌ای نداشت که مشتاقش باشیم. |
3 Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.
| او را خوار شمردیم و رد کردیم، اما او درد و غم ما را تحمل کرد. همهٔ ما از او رو برگردانیدیم. او خوار شد و ما هیچ اهمیت ندادیم. |
4 But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God's punishment had come.
| این دردهای ما بود که او به جان گرفته بود، این رنجهای ما بود که او بر خود حمل می‌کرد؛ اما ما گمان کردیم این درد و رنج مجازاتی است که خدا بر او فرستاده است. |
5 But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.
| برای گناهان ما بود که او مجروح شد و برای شرارت ما بود که او را زدند. او تنبیه شد تا ما سلامتی کامل داشته باشیم. از زخمهای او ما شفا یافتیم. |
6 We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.
| ما همچون گوسفندانی که آواره شده باشند، گمراه شده بودیم؛ راه خدا را ترک کرده به راههای خود رفته بودیم. با وجود این، خداوند تقصیرها و گناهان همهٔ ما را به حساب او گذاشت! |
7 Men were cruel to him, but he was gentle and quiet; as a lamb taken to its death, and as a sheep before those who take her wool makes no sound, so he said not a word.
| با او با بی‌رحمی رفتار کردند، اما او تحمل کرد و زبان به شکایت نگشود. همچنانکه بَره را به سوی کشتارگاه می‌برند، او را نیز به کشتارگاه بردند. او مثل گوسفندی که پشمهایش را می‌چینند، لب به اعتراض نگشود. |
8 They took away from him help and right, and who gave a thought to his fate? for he was cut off from the land of the living: he came to his death for the sin of my people.
| به ناحق او را به مرگ سپردند و کسی از نسل او اعتراض نکرد. زیرا او از دنیای زندگان منقطع شد؛ آری، به سبب عصیان قوم من مجازات شد. |
9 And they put his body into the earth with sinners, and his last resting-place was with the evil-doers, though he had done no wrong, and no deceit was in his mouth.
| هنگامی که خواستند او را همراه خطاکاران دفن کنند، او را در قبر مردی ثروتمند گذاشتند؛ اما هیچ خطایی از او سر نزده بود و هیچ حرف نادرستی از دهانش بیرون نیامده بود. |
10 And the Lord was pleased ... see a seed, long life, ... will do well in his hand. ...
| خداوند می‌فرماید: «این خواست من بود که او رنج بکشد و بمیرد. او جانش را قربانی کرد تا آمرزش گناهان را به ارمغان آورد، بنابراین صاحب فرزندان بی‌شمار خواهد شد. او زندگی را از سر خواهد گرفت و ارادهٔ من به دست او اجرا خواهد شد. |
11 ... made clear his righteousness before men ... had taken their sins on himself.
| هنگامی که ببیند عذابی که کشیده چه ثمری به بار آورده، راضی و خشنود خواهد شد. خدمتگزار عادل من بار گناهان بسیاری از مردم را به دوش خواهد گرفت و من به خاطر او آنها را خواهم بخشید. |
12 For this cause he will have a heritage with the great, and he will have a part in the goods of war with the strong, because he gave up his life, and was numbered with the evil-doers; taking on himself the sins of the people, and making prayer for the wrongdoers.
| به او مقامی بزرگ و قدرتی عظیم خواهم داد، زیرا او خود را فدا کرد، از خطاکاران محسوب شد، بار گناهان بسیاری را بر دوش گرفت و برای خطاکاران شفاعت کرد.» |
